About TPDDL tariff structure

Tata Power Delhi Distribution Ltd. bills domestic consumers using a telescopic slab structure. Each slab applies only to the units within that range, so adding a few more units never reprices your earlier (cheaper) units.

Beyond energy charges, the TPDDL bill includes a fixed charge of a load-band based amount on your sanctioned load, an FAC pass-through of ₹0.35/unit (revised monthly), and Delhi electricity duty of 5%. Eligible households also receive a state subsidy of ₹3/unit on the first 200 units.

We verify TPDDL rates against the latest SERC tariff order quarterly. Last verified: 2026-04-22. Original source: official tariff order.

TPDDL per-unit rate — common questions

Answers to the most common electricity bill questions in India.

What is the per unit electricity rate of TPDDL in 2026?
TPDDL domestic energy charges start at ₹3.00/unit for the first 200 units and rise to ₹8.00/unit at the highest slab. Slabs are telescopic — only units within each slab are billed at that rate. See the full slab table on this page. Effective 2025-04-01.
How much will 1 unit of electricity cost on my TPDDL bill?
1 unit (1 kWh) is billed at the slab rate that applies to your monthly consumption — starting at ₹3.00/unit. The effective rate on your bill is higher because of fixed charges (₹—/kW), FAC, and electricity duty (5%). At a 100-unit monthly consumption, the all-in rate is roughly ₹3.73/unit.
What is the commercial per-unit rate for TPDDL?
TPDDL commercial (LT) energy charges start at ₹9.50/unit and go up to ₹9.50/unit. Commercial fixed charges are ₹250/kW/month — typically higher than domestic. Industrial (LT) is usually a flat ₹7.75/unit.
What is the FAC and electricity duty for TPDDL?
TPDDL currently passes through ₹0.35/unit as Fuel Adjustment Charge (FAC / FPPCA — varies monthly). Delhi electricity duty is 5% on the energy + fixed + FAC base. These add to your effective per-unit cost beyond the headline slab rate.
Is there a subsidy on TPDDL per-unit rates?
Yes — eligible domestic consumers get a subsidy of ₹3/unit on the first 200 units. This effectively reduces the slab-1 rate to ₹0.00/unit for qualifying households.
How often does TPDDL change its per-unit rates?
Slab rates are revised through the annual SERC tariff order — typically effective from 1 April each financial year. The current TPDDL rates are effective from 2025-04-01. FAC is revised more frequently (often monthly) to reflect fuel cost movements.
